Model Status
This CellML model was implemented in a manner that could be used for performing finite element model simulations on the CMISS software program developed at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute, The University of Auckland.
Model Structure
ABSTRACT: The study of ventricular mechanics-analyzing the distribution of strain and stress in myocardium throughout the cardiac cycle-is crucially dependent on the accuracy of the constitutive law chosen to represent the highly nonlinear and anisotropic properties of passive cardiac muscle. A number of such laws have been proposed and fitted to experimental measurements of stress-strain behavior. Here we examine five of these laws and compare them on the basis of (i) "goodness of fit:" How well they fit a set of six shear deformation tests, (ii) "determinability:" How well determined the objective function is at the optimal parameter fit, and (iii) "variability:" How well determined the material parameters are over the range of experiments. These criteria are utilized to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the constitutive laws.

We'll use this component as the "interface" to the model, all
other components are hidden via encapsulation in this component.

In this simple model we only have one component, which holds the
six equations.
Added metadata to the model.

This is a CellML version of the Tangent constitutive material law,
defining the relation between the six independent strain components
and the stress components. It is assumed that the strain components
will be controlled externally by the application using this CellML
model.
